[3.19] ⚛️ Qosmoz's ❄️ Eye of Winter Mines Saboteur ❄️ League Start to Uber Bossing!
Hello, thanks for sharing this build, having a blast atm.
I was checking your new PoB, the purity of elements wwithout cluster and i see you have 2 hydrospheres, one with arcanist brand and the other one on the wand link.
Is there any reason to run 2 hydrospheres? or we just swap one with vaal righteous fire?
Can anyone take a look at my build? Honestly this feels freaking awful. Bossing is painful, and there is 0 survivability for me. Obviously I am doing something wrong but I haven't a clue what that is.
I prepared 2 additional PoB for high-end budget builds. There are 3 build ideas for the high budget at the end game;
1. Normal tree as in the guide with Herald of Ice + Rest of the auras (including Grace)
2. Purity of Elements + Grace high reservation option. Absolutely must have Charisma annointment
3. Purity of Elements + Grace + Single Large Cluster setup. Again, Charisma is a must have and this provides 10% extra damage. Not worth it in my opinion but option is there.
Let me know if you have any question. I think taking Purity of Elements will make the build better, but reservation becomes a problem. I could fit but Conq. Efficiency jewel can be helpful until you get it going without it. Getting -7 Mana Cost for skills on the other ring definitely will help a lot.
Nice I will take a look. At the moment I made a few changes to the original pob:
- Grace. I was tired of getting frozen and didn't want to take brine king.
- To compensate the loss of grace, I switched to lunaris for projectile avoidance and chain immunity. Its also got some extra elemental mitigation
- Removing arakali makes you more vulnerable to DoT so I took the mine mastery "Regenerate 2.5% of Life per second if you've Detonated a Mine recently". This has been great so far. It gets converted to ES by Zealot's Oath
- With the extra reservation I went for Purity of the Elements for ailment immunity. This also allows me to drop Pyromaniac in favor of Demolitions Specialist.
- Demo specialist doesn't calculate well in PoB but the masteries are affected by the 150% increased effect of auras from mines "Each Mine applies 2% reduced Damage dealt to Enemies near it, up to 10%". I'm not throwing a lot of mines so this is a small extra defense layer. It also applies to the damage one
- I pathed north of the thread of hope location to save a few passives and cut everything in the middle-top of the tree. Thread takes Arcane Focus, Essence Surge and Heart of Ice. With the extra point I took Foresight and some ES nodes to boost my survivability
- I'm currently sitting on 7.1k ES which is comfortable for mapping. The crusader crystal belt should bring me up to almost 8k ES
- Watcher's eye with clarity mod gives almost 500 more ES for a projected total of 8.5k
- I switched some links around to link Skitterbots with Unbound Ailments and Bonechill, this increases damage a lot and provides more freezes, its very noticable
- A big problem of the build is capping resists and attributes due to the amount of uniques. Purity of Elements helps with the resist part, freeing up a LOT of suffixes slots for better mods
- With an extra suffix I plan to get a frostbite on hit ring + whipsers of doom for a ton of extra damage
- The only defensive stats that needs work is physical damage mitigation. Purity of Elements mods all grant a phys to X at 10-12% which is great. Those run for 4-5ex right now
- I noticed that shields can roll gain 6% of mana as extra ES, that seems pretty OP on a prism guardian
- Tempering catalysts on chayula gave me almost 300 ES alone
I think that's it for now. I'm cruising in T16s now and doing guardian maps with Guardian's Aid without issues.
good upgrades. You don't have to drop Grace actually with Purity of Elements. check the new PoBs i posted this morning.
How does this build counters corrupt blood? not seeing any flask to remove it on the budget pob

i guess this is due to the flask changes, I skipped it. I will correct. Normally, we do not get a lot of corrupted blood stacks due to not hitting directly to the mobs. Even if you dont have it, probably you can get away with it. Normally, get one of the magic flask to be on the safe side.
Best case is to get on the Energy from Within jewel later on which goes 3-5ex.
